Summer Essential Series ~ Lovely Happenings

I am very excited to share Megan from Lovely Happenings summer essentials. Megan's blog is one of my daily reads, as she always has great quotes, fun videos, pretty clothes, fantastic bikes and she is a recent grad of OSU (Go Pac-10). As an added bonus, she has excellent taste in summer essentials...

*What one item can you not be without in the summer?

This summer, I won’t be without my new current obsession, Kiehl’s “Pear Tree Corner” hand and body lotion. It has such a light scent and doesn’t leave my skin all sticky. It is a perfect solution for dry summer skin. Love it!

*What are you craving for summer 2009?

I am craving the new line of Trina Turk fabrics by Schumacher. They screams summer! Every single fabric is bright, cheery, and absolutely fabulous! They would look perfect for outdoor lounge chairs. I can imagine myself sitting on the fabrics with a margarita in my hand and basking in the sun!

*What is your essential summer song for 2009?

It is hard to pick only one essential summer song. I love music so much that it is hard to narrow it down. But if I must pick.....Dave Matthews Band, Spaceman. The song is off their new album, Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King , and the whole album is wonderful. I get to see DMB this labor day at the Gorge in Washington for two days. I can’t wait. It is going to be epic!

Thank you so much Megan for contributing your picks! I am definitely jealous of your trip to the Gorge this summer, epic is a pretty great way to describe the event. And I am most definitely going to try the Kiehl's lotion, as a non-sticky lotion in summer is must have! Be sure to check back tomorrow for A Picture Paints A Thousand Words choices.
